You know you are a card junkie when.....(part 2)

[Exhibitman]

When a friend says he went to a show over the weekend and you immediately think card show.

When you calculate the cost of things based on what cards you could buy instead.

When the biggest contested item in your divorce isn't the house, car, or pension, it's your collection.

I do that. I also do it in reverse -- like selling cards so I can buy things for the house or family....

When you look back on the day that your wife said "It's me or the cards" and you think how lucky you are that you still have your cards and not her...

Now that's funny!!! My wife said she will keep the cards.

When in the middle of an argument with your wife over your [alleged] failure to perform house chores adequately, she likens her feelings of pride towards the neatness and organization of her home to your feelings of pride in the neatness and organization of your collection.

Happened this a.m. and yes, I lost the argument immediately thereafter.

Ouch.

No recovering from that one, I'm afraid.

I know you are quite the litigator, but that case is one you just can't win.

1. When you tell yourself that your just going to look and see whats going to be auctioned but not buy. 20 min. later you have bids on 6 cards.

2. When your son comes by with a card you have been wanting and you promise to take him out of your Will if he doesn't sell it to you.

When you can't let your day end until you have read that day's new Net54 posts, even if it is the wee hours of the morning, which often is the case with me!
